One of six Forest Lawn cemeteries in Southern California, Forest Lawn Memorial Park is unlike the stereotypical grey, depressing, and unsightly stone-yards that have come to become synonymous with cemeteries. Instead, the memorial park is a sprawling, perfectly manicured lawn filled with towering trees, engraved statues and memorial architecture, and serves as a beautiful final resting place for several famous celebrities, including Carrie Fisher, Debbie Reynolds, Bette Davis and many more of Hollywood’s finest.

Enjoy a leisurely stroll through the memorial park and visit highlights such as the Lincoln Terrace, which houses a life-like bronze statue of the 16th president along with panoramic mosaics detailing key events in Lincoln’s life; the Plaza of Mesoamerican Heritage, which features detailed, ornately engraved sculptures of native Mexican artwork and artefacts; and the Court of Liberty, which houses several artefacts that preserve the history of the United States, including the “Birth of Liberty” mosaic depicting key scenes from early America.
